Rabbit

A page for my portfolio.
It contains the "final" rough 7 key poses, as well as the planning thumbails.
Finally I've uploaded to animation as well. Since there are no inbetweens it looks kinda rough and jagged, but it was never intended to be a animation, just the picture, so it'll do the trick

Soldier

I've been working on this character for a couple of days.
I'm not used to draw on the computer, so it's been a mixed pleasure I've gotta say.

New drawings

Some more drawings for my portfolio, they are all in very different style, where to four "pretty" drawings are between 5 and 12 hours a drawing, the sketches come in at a couple of seconds.
The blue character poses are about 10 minutes or so...

Long study

Four longstudy drawings I did at The Drawing Academy. I think they are all made in november and december 2008.
The timeframe of each image is between 5 and 10 hours, or so.

Character sheet

A character sheet of a character I've been working on last this week.
Contains both final poses, sketches/thumbnails and shape overview of the character (the red).

Animal sketches

A couple of animal sketches I did today.
The pose of the bear is a bit awkward, and the running pose of the cheetah could/should be a bit stronger as well.

Production images

Some production images from my shortfilm.

The top left if the rig of the machine. I did some minor changes with the way he is strapped onto the machine, but its pretty close to what you can see here.

The top right is the final rig of both the character and machine. This is how the fresh clean scene looks like, when I'm about to start a new animation. I did add both characters under a main controler, though.

The buttom left is the final rig of the man. He is very simple, since he didn't have that much freedom to move anyways. Pure IK rig on both arms and legs, because I'm pretty lazy, and because like to create the arcs my self.
FK on spine though.

The buttom right is the concept art for man and machine. I liked it, and it got a few laughs from the people I showed it to, so I tried to stick closely to this, when I translated it into 3d. Especially the curve of the machine. I made it straight, the first go I had at it in maya, but it just got way to stiff, so I ended up just copying the concept art I did, and make it curved over the back of the man.

Storyboad

The storyboards for my shortfilm.

They are not very well drawn what so ever, but they are pretty clear in their expression, and that's the main purpose of them.

Good drawings can come later :)

Short film

Okay, this time I thinks that I'll actually publish some content.
I'm thinking of moving my website www.doffer.dk over to this blog, as it is a bit easyer to manage a blog.

Let's start out with my recently finished short film.
I did all the work on it, from storyboard to final composite.
I hope you like it:
